    Rather off topic, but. The wheels on the front of this thing are 13 inch. Rear 15. Anybody know what brand they might be?

    I missed out on a set last year in a local wrecking yard a bit north of town. I had known about them for a couple of years, but in the week between seeing them again and deciding I couldn't live another day without them for my '62 Ranchero, they found a new home... Crap!

    Cragar now makes the Keystone Klassic, but not in a 4 lug/ 4 spoke. Here are two original Keystone Klassic 4 lug 13" wheels with Pinto/Mustg II bolt pattern. Wish I knew where to get the other two.

    How about the American 4-spoke Libre? (has those Daisy style spokes). That's if you can't find the Cragars you are looking for, Obwan. Gary

    Man, wait till you try to find narrow white wall tires! Got a shock looking for them lately. Seems like now they are considered "boutique" tires and companies like diamond back and Coker are about the only game in town these days.

    I just bought 4 175-80R -13 from tires-easy.com for $300 for 4 in my hands. Narrow white for my 'vair. About the only W/W I could find outside Coker at better than twice the price. Mounted them up only needed minimal weights to ballance.

    Good info John, I just ordered a set of four for my newly acquired falcon wagon. I REALLY wish the 185's were still available, but these will have to do.:cool: I guess I can live with a 2% size mismatch.

    I was seriously considering putting 14" wheels on it, but it came with an old set of 13" chrome steel slots that I REALLY want to roll on.

    Cool! I went the old route and hit Pep Boys and a local tire warehouse and got questions such as: Why would you want that? I was told in a couple of places that narrow white walls were extinct... Hence, I bought the 14" slot mags from Miles M instead of the four spoke Cragars... John, we are going to need some more pressure plates!

    Looks great! I'm almost regretting my slot mags now... That's ok, it'll match the rest of the fleet around here...

    Is there anywhere out there that has 13" 4 bolt Keystone Klassic rims? I have a set of 4 but two of them are pitted so bad they need to be totally rechromed. Nobody in my neck of the woods does that any more. Two are still not bad. Missed out on an ebay set about a year ago. They were sweet/ still in the box. I'll post a pic of them soon.

    I don't think I have ever seen a car that doesn't look good with Cragars.
    Got them off Craigslist, all 4 with tires for $50!!!!
    Here is my '63 Corvair...

  26. I don't know if you have a PepBoys out there, but that is where I got my last set. And they aren't exactly cheap anymore either.

    That's honestly where I went first! The Cornell line has always been okay as far as tread wear and ride, but always had narrow whites too.... Not any more!

    Richfox.............those wheels on that shortened truck look like the old Ansen sprint and from the pic, look like the real deal magnesium.
